There is now just one peg remaining on the island - the old peg 6, and some of the older tighter pegs have been removed. New platforms provide an excellent base for a comfortable days fishing, and with the new stocking of Silver fish - Skimmers, Tench, Crucians, F1's and the resident Roach and Rudd this will be a fabulous lake to bring families to, ensuring the float is always going under! Match weights in excess of 80lb are already being taken, and these will only climb as the fish bulk up and start feeding aggressively
